-A couple of releases ago, we started the process of reorganizing the
-configuration menu and this release is bringing the next big step in that
-reorganizing.

-The goal is to have everything in a single logical place, having it accessible
-nicely from mobile devices, and allow/prepare for future expansion.
+The goal is to have everything in a single logical place, and after user tests
+and many discussions in frontend and UX channels, this is what the menu
+now looks like:
 
 <img class="no-shadow" src='/images/blog/2022-05/configuration-menu.png' alt='Screenshot showing the new configuration menu structure'>
 
-Are you running Home Assistant OS or Supervised? The Supervisor has been fully
-merged into the configuration menu, to provide a seamless/unified experience.
-This removes weirdness like having a network section in the system menu
-and the Supervisor section.
+Most notably, it is renamed "Configuration" to "Settings", and we have a brand
+new "System" submenu (shown on the right in the above screenshot).
 
-Blueprints are now moved to the automations & scenes section, and by popular
-request: Helpers have moved to the devices & services page. Areas & Zone are
-now nicely brought together in a single menu, and there is now an extensive
-System menu.
+Are you running Home Assistant OS? The Supervisor has been fully merged into
+the settings menu to provide a seamless/unified experience. It removes
+weirdness like having a network section in one menu and the Supervisor section.
 
-YAML Configuration Controls have a new home in the developer tools. This felt like a more logical place to have the reloading happen.
-Restarting Home Assistant can now be done via the Overflow menu on the System Dashboard Page.
+Blueprints moved to the automations & scenes section, and by popular request:
+Helpers have moved to the devices & services page.
+
+YAML configuration tools have a new home in the developer tools, aa more
+logical place for YAML configuration checks and reloading.
+
+You might notice some of the new menu items are fairly empty. For those menus,
+like "Storage" and "Hardware", we have more content planned soon!
+
+Just to be sure, we have added a list of changes to the breaking changes section;
+please check those out in case you are missing something.
